does anyone NOT like bare minerals?

I am trying it for the second time now. I find it looks artificial on me - and makes my skin breakout...but it seems like everyone else really likes it...am I alone?

I bought another brand but same concept. I felt it made my face look dirty. I didn't see what was great about it at all.

Re: does anyone NOT like bare minerals?

Are you applying it correctly? You have to be sure not to put too much one. When you put the powder on the brush, you should not see the makeup.

I'm really surprised it makes you break out, it's the ONLY makeup that I can use and not break out.

But, every person's skin is different. Chat Icon

I broke out in the begining . Try using a moisterizer before applying. I do like it but it is too messy for me.

I don't like their brand either but did use it for 4 years until I switched to Pur minerals which is the same concept but pressed and it works better for my skin.

I used to love it and swear by it. All of a sudden, it made my face itchy and the skin under my eyes look terrible and strange. I am wearing Trish McEvoy now.

Re: does anyone NOT like bare minerals?

I tried it, liked it in the beginning and then it just started not working...if that makes any sense. I started to feel cakey and dry and yes, my skin started breaking out. I went back to the old stuff I was using (mostly Laura Mercier) and am so much happier!

I love the eye stuff and the blush, but I don't really use the foundation.

Re: does anyone NOT like bare minerals?

I just got it but I'm not really loving it. But I do like the moisturizer and the bronzer...the last few days I've used my regular liquid foundation and then used the bronzer and the final powder...and that I like.

Too messy for me. I really like physican's formula. They have a pressed powder.
